PAI's arg parser silently dropped unrecognized flags (e.g., --plugin-dir, --mcp-config), preventing users from combining PAI with Claude Code's native flags. Unknown flags are now collected and forwarded to the underlying claude command, enabling use cases like: pai -l --plugin-dir ~/Projects/boxie --mcp-config ~/.claude/mcp-profiles/boxie.json Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 <noreply@anthropic.com>

Summary
PAI's arg parser silently dropped unrecognized flags (e.g.,
--plugin-dir,--mcp-config), preventing users from combining PAI with Claude Code's native flags. Unknown flags are now collected and forwarded to the underlyingclaudecommand, enabling use cases like:Changes
-) are collected into apassthrougharray instead of being silently ignored-, it's treated as that flag's valuecmdLaunch()and spread into theclaudecommand argsKnown limitation
Flags that accept multiple space-separated values (e.g.,
--add-dir dir1 dir2,--allowedTools Bash Edit Read) will only capture the first value. This covers the vast majority of Claude Code flags which take a single value. Multi-value flags can use repeated invocations (--add-dir dir1 --add-dir dir2) or=syntax as a workaround.Test plan
pai -l --plugin-dir ~/Projects/boxie— plugin-dir passed through correctlypai --mcp-config ~/.claude/mcp-profiles/boxie.json— mcp-config passed throughpai unknowncmd— still errors with "Unknown command"pai --model opus— passed through correctly-r,-m,-l,--safe) still work as before
